Lancashire Police have today confirmed that the body recovered from the River Wyre yesterday afternoon is that of missing dog walker Nicola Bulley.
It comes after more than three weeks of searching for the missing 45-year-old, who disappeared from St Michael's on Wyre, Lancashire on January 27.
Police received reports that something was floating in the River Wyre at 11.36am yesterday morning, with the force immediately deploying units, helicopters, drones and a diving team to the scene - just one mile away from where Nicola was last seen.
